RCC Men's Track Suffers First Loss Since 2011

March 8, 2014

The Tigers put up a good fight, but in the end the 49ers of CSULB prevailed giving RCC men's track and field team its first loss since 2011. The men's squad was victorious over the CSUF and Pepperdine. Some highlights included Just'n Thymes running the one of the fastest times in the nation, and the fastest time in the state, in the 100 (10.18) and 200 (20.80) meters. He also ran a 45.7 split in the 4x400 to lead the Tigers to the fastest 4x400 time in the state (3:10). The 400 meters was an exciting race with Long Beach State's Michael Perez (48.10) edging out RCC's Sterling Winston (48.11) at the line. Sterling led the Tigers back in the 4x100 (40.79) with a fantastic leg to edge out the 49ers (41.08). RCC went 1-2 in the high jump with both Diego Felix and Ray Owens posting personal bests of 6'8.75". Long Beach Jacob Frazier had a big day in the throws. He won the shot (57'2") over RCC's Connor Einck (55'7"), and he took second in the discus. The 49ers Kody Robinson won the hammer with a toss of 186'0" over the Tiger's Ryan Kent (181'3"). The overall score was CSULB 80, RCC 72. Against CSUF the Tigers prevailed 101-48. Full results can be found through directathletics.com at http://www.directathletics.com/results/track/33815.html.
